The interpreted data is displayed in several columns as follows:

for each event. The title of this column is “Num”.

• Generator ID.
The bottom information pane shows the details on the highlighted SEL entry. Use the arrow keys to
move up and down, or the Tab key to highlight a menu. In Linux*, the bottom information pane
contains a statistics panel which holds a statistical table of events based on their Event Type
(Critical, Warning, Informational and Others).
